The '''''Mutan Et''-pattern storm cutter'''{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=269}} {{3Letter|DAS|storm cutter}} is a class of light attack ship formerly serviced by the [[Covenant fleet|fleet]] of the [[Covenant]], now in use by its [[Covenant remnants|successor factions]]. Once manufactured by the [[Assembly Forges|Primary Assembly Forges]] of [[High Charity]], they are primarily used for pursuit, scouting, and harassment in battle and are regarded as relentless and elusive.{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet}} | |||

'' | ''DAS''-class storm cutters were employed by the [[Covenant]]'s [[Covenant fleet|fleet]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. Throughout the war, these vessels served as scouts and strikecraft tenders, prowling in hunter-killer teams at the far edges of major fleet engagements.{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet}} In at least one instance, ''[[Heresy's Sorrow]]'' harassed UNSC's supply lines and UEG trade routes.{{Ref/Reuse|HVTsaham}} | ||

The '' | The ''DAS''-class storm cutter was first introduced in ''[[Halo: Warfleet]]'', with the [[Halo Story Bible|''Halo'' Story Bible]] previously containing only a handful of technical details on the class. After determining the dimensions of the storm cutter from the Story Bible's notes and [[Isaac Hannaford]]'s reference render of the ship, [[Kenneth Peters]] was able to derive crew, mass, and armament details for ''Warfleet''.{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet}} | ||
